lowered slightly camber question

Featured Replies

ive just lowered my car and have a rather extreme case of camber ive seen drift spec cars with less camber. was wondering will this cause issues with my hub bearings or just cause exessive tyre wear. and does anyone know a rough price for it to be corrected. any help/advice appreciated

I driver 3' camber rear and no truoble with bearings, but Get it corrected or your tires will wear fast. :)

ROTFL! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Not to be rude, but have you measured it 110mm down? Because I had mine 95mm down, and than it was allmost laying on the right driveshaft.....

Just think of the poor roadholding and the excessive oversteer if you corner quickly. Excess camber is bad, and if you have an accident the insurance company could use it as an excuse to not payout even with the modification declared.

Woop woop sound of da fun police :rofl:;)

that looks lovely i wish i could get mines that low and still drive but i live on a farm road and at 80 it catches alot with only 2 ppl in the car. never got pics at 110 which was measured at 112 there was very very little room on the driveshaft but only got 6 feet before i was stuck so never got far enough for clearance issues with the shaft.
